"\includepdf" in LilyPond

2017-12-18 Thread Urs Liska
Hi all, would it be possible (or did anyone already do something like this) to include whole PDF pages between bookparts? I'm thinking of a way to combine title pages and/or prefattory matter with scores and use LaTeX to create the text parts but do it from the LilyPond compilation. In

Hi Urs, I include xelatex texts by converting each page of the resulting PDF into an EPS-file. Those EPS-files are then included in a markup-list to allow page-breaking. The XeTeX-source is created with zero-margins dimensions fitting into the available space. But if you want to include

OK, I've got several replies which mostly went into the same direction: it's not worth the hassle forcing LilyPond to take control over the LaTeX generation. Generally it's much easier to have either LaTeX control the compilation of a volume or directly generate building blocks independently

Hi Urs, I use lilypond to compile the pdfs and then add whatever pdf material required and then use a concatenate function to join them the only downside is working out index pages which is no elegant. regards, Shane On Mon, Dec 18, 2017 at 11:13 AM, Jan-Peter Voigt wrote: >
